This particular example is finished in nickel, a popular option at the time that adds an elegant sheen and increased corrosion resistance. The black checkered polymer grips, adorned with the iconic S&W monogram, provide a secure and comfortable hold, complementing the revolver's overall design. With a 6-shot fluted cylinder, this revolver is designed for durability and ease of reloading, capable of handling .38 S&W Special ammunition. The serial number range of 73251 to 146899 places this model firmly within the 1st Change period, and its production is considered part of a transitional phase, with around 73,648 units manufactured before the introduction of the 2nd Change model. The Model of 1905 1st Change stands as a significant piece of firearm history, both as a reliable service revolver and a collectible item.
